The Utility Strike Avoidance Group (USAG) is a collaborative group of over 180 utilities asset owners, industry groups and contractors that seek to ensure the highest standards of safety and best practice when carrying out work on the vital services for our homes and businesses. In particular it will help those carrying out work avoid disrupting supplies through accidental strikes on utilities in the ground.

The USAG is free to join and there is no fee for signing the Charter or using the tool-kit.
